Hi everyone! Today I am wearing Etro Royal Pavillon (sample) and liking it quite a bit.
Thread: SOTD Thursday 11th October 2012 |
I had to scrub off Vous Souvenez-Vous.There was something strange and inert about it on my skin, and it had to go. I have switched to By Killian's Sweet Redemption, finished a sample. It feels more "me". I think I'd like to have some more of it, but I'm not sure.

Good morning - afternoon![]()
I was late to work today, but it gave me a chance to stand in the parking lot and wait a long time for the shuttle to the hospital - all the while gazing up at the beautiful sky full of hot air balloons. The International Balloon Fiesta continues, and it is truely a wonderful sight to behold!
And I am wearing L'Artisan Vanilia today.
Mrs. Q, enjoy your break - a well deserved one I am sure!

Mrs Q -
G, the ornithological obsession is a lifelong one. Coincidental you mentioning woodpeckers - we get the other sort more regularly on our feeders and have just had a visit minutes before I posted this.
SotE - MFK Cologne pour le Soir.
(((Wolfie))), thank you. You always smell pretty damn fine yourself.
Foustie, mind if I join the PerfumedLady loveathon too ?
Today I'm wearing Samsara by Guerlain
SotD was Vol de Nuit Extrait and now Encens Mythique d'Orient from my decant. Best wishes to all!!!
Good evening all. A flying visit today. Been scent free, yet someone walked in my office breathed in deeply, sighed and said "It smells so good in here". I think it must have been my coat and scarf which must have taken on a whole melange of scent. I'm anosmic to it now. Maybe they're ready for a wash![]()
Wearing Mauboussin.![]()
I am wearing Dior's Granville now.
Mike told me in Vegas that someone pointed out to him the Blenheim Bouquet similarity. Yes, I agree -- Granville does smell like Blenheim Bouquet! Ha!
Tried Milly-La-Foret this morning and was underwhelmed.
Last thing I tried yesterday was New Look 1947. It seems like a Poison's little sister to me.
Let me join PerfumedLady loveathon as well! Yay, PerfumedLady! You're the best! (and hey, I can be all sorts of things and I know that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder but I truly hope that you don't expect any classic beauty out of me, not my strong point).
This is the one I liked best from sniffing on paper at Guerlain boutique in Vegas. But time will come to them as well, I brought the samples of these to test.
My next one today will probably be Oud Isphahan, Scentimental started a lovely thread on it and got me excited about trying it out!

And GO QUARRY!!!
I wish I could, too. I might be able to take a day off in the middle of next week, maybe. So please enjoy yourself for me too!
And thank you so much for Donna Karan's jasmine. It is one up there with me.

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. ..Carl Sagan
I "changed" into Eau de Shalimar. That Eau des Iles is just too heavy, too warm and spicy for me today. I just cannot bear it. Blech.
I send thee this sweet perfume a fragrance to the fragrant, as one would offer wine to the god of wine.
What?! A loveathon for me? I love you guys more!
Jon, some smart publisher should be offering you a book deal for your nature photos! I'd put it on my coffee table in a heartbeat. Love the woodpecker shot, they are one of my favorite feeder visitors. I get two types, both different than yours. Love the sounds, even when they're pecking my gutters!
You stop it, Warum! I know what a pretty gal you are, can't fool me! It is just so wonderful to have you back here at SotD, at least until work steals you from us again. Boo, work!
Hoping all has gone well for 30R & Mom today. Sure hope this remedies the headaches.
Still in Cuir, need to shower and choose something else. Of course can't decide what. A problem I love having!
Thanks for thoughts about Mom!
Mom's root canal is all done now and the new glasses are on her head as of one hour ago! She has to get used to them, as she had adapted her posture to the stretched-out frames of her former pair. Now let's see if the headaches subside to any degree!
Something about Avignon annoyed me today, I don't know what exactly. I've never felt this way before with it. *shrug*

Oud Ispahan. It reminds me pretty strongly of KM Loukhoum Parfum Le Soir.
Hugs ((30 Roses)) and Mom, glad the dental work is done.

Well, I wouldn't say it was cold exactly, but the temperature did get below 80F, and it felt cool enough to break out the Reglisse Noir. mmm. This is the only perfume I have that seems to have 'throw' but not be loud at all, it does an odd trick of smelling just as strong 3 feet away as it does when I hold my wrist up to my nose. Definitely a 'light' scent.
SOTN: Midnight in Paris, edp.
I'm wearing Bond Andy Warhol today. It's been a long day ...
Hugs to all.
I've trademarked the color bleu
Hi, Y'all. Been away for a while. It has been one of those weeks. Am wearing Yatagan.
Carven Homme tonight.

My mom is in the hospital tonight, she had a blocked carotid artery. The doctor put a stent in but they need to keep her overnight. Both of my sisters and my brother were there with her the entire time. I was the one texting every couple of minutes to get updates.
No scent during the day today. Sofie woke up with an established basilar artery migraines. She agreed to take the Imitrex right away, so I knew it was really bad.
She's much improved tonight.
SotE is ELDO Rosy d' Palma I'm craving incense and rose. Any successful combos you can recommend?

SOTD: Castile by Penhaligon's.
